Vérité La Joie 1998

Sonoma County, California, United StatesMade from micro-crus of mountain vineyards of which 90 percent are located in Sonoma and 10% in Napa County. Open chocolate/mocha prune plum aromas with hints of leather resin and vanilla. Super soft, velvet glove textures with similar flavours and a long smoky spicy finish. Rich and round with only a dusting of dry tannins in the background. Should peak around late 2005 to early 2006.Tasted: 01 March 2001Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
